𝕽𝖍𝖎𝖓𝖎𝖆 | OPM | Open Letter to the Emperor and Foreign Affairs Minister

From the Office of the Prime Minister:

It isn't often that one singular issue divides or unites regions in NationStates. Sure, we've seen successful and large raiding/defending alliances, like the one that took Westphalia not long ago, but those are fleeting and meaningless. It is rare that a call to arms is so powerful, and impactful on the community that it brings together the largest, most serious regions of the day. However, that call has been issued and Rhinia should join ranks in anyway it can.

The crimes of the New Pacific Order are numerous, shocking, and destabilizing. Their long-term calculated actions against regions they called allies have been revealed, and war is at the doorstep of the Pacific. From their questionable views on the roles of regions in NationStates, to their underhanded attempts to overthrow legitimate regional governments, lets take a look at some of their crimes as outlined by regions on the brink of war:

  • "We found out that the Pacific played a major role in causing strife and prompting civil war in Lazarus, in the hope that this would turn the political landscape of the region in their favour. This effort only served to further destabilise a politically divided region that had already been victim of NPO aggression."

    • Foreign Affairs of the Rejected Realms

  • "NPO remained silent and allowed him to influence our players, gain admittance into our regions, and presumably spy on us on NPOs behalf in exchange for their 'second chance.'"

    • Statement from Osiris

  • "We have learned that [NPO Leader] claimed in June 2017 to have rigged the South Pacific’s elections in order to make TSP a puppet state."

    • Ministry of Foreign Affairs, The South Pacific

  • "We have tolerated and even attempted to find common ground with The Pacific over the years, but the NPO has made it clear that they cannot peacefully coexist with Europeia…"

    • President of Europeia

  • "While The Pacific deigns to recognize a total of four “classes” rather than the original two, allowing for two other lesser classes of misguided “diaspora” to whom the same malice is not attributed as is to “Userites,” you’ll rarely see these other terms mentioned in reality. After all, they cannot be used as effectively to demean wide swaths of players! Mainly, you’ll see The Pacific calling anyone they remotely dislike “subversive userites,” and advocate for them to be “purged.”'"

    • Statement from the Black Hawks

Our numbers may be useless, our voices may be small, but it is an important footnote in history that Rhinia stake a stand and make a statement against the evils of the New Pacific Order. As the descending region of a once notable power, made up of aspiring nations looking for greater regional influence, we must join ranks. I call upon the Emperor, The liamese empire, and the Foreign Affairs Minister, Sammona, to investigate and respond promptly to this movement.

Comrades of the Anti-Pac Coalition:

In times of war, we must arm ourselves against false propaganda. We must brace ourselves against hostility. We must be prepared for assaults of all kinds. These are staples of war. Most of all, we must hold true to ourselves and our character.

However, we must also be conscientious to all. Though the New Pacific Order has committed great crimes against regional sovereignty and self-determination, as described here and here, we cannot allow ourselves to be dragged down to their level. The good people of The Pacific will be treated with respect, for they are not the aggressors here. Their own government has deceived them with lies, as they have done to the rest of the world. Truth and justice, not falsehoods and personal attacks, shall be our weapons in this war!

What is acceptable behavior when under attack by the NPO on the Regional Message Board:

1) Reporting to the Moderators if rulebreaking occurs (ban evasion, repeated spam, persistent harassment of people on the RMB).
2) Asking nations to stop disrupting conversations on the Regional Message Board, both our own and theirs.
3) Uplifting remarks aimed at our fellow APC comrades rather than mockery against those who spied on, invaded, and scorned our regions.
4) Above all, remember that players from UCRs and GCRs deserve to be treated with respect.

What is acceptable behavior in any chat room during war:

1) Lighthearted jokes.
2) Tasteful APC propaganda.
3) Commentary on what has been posted most recently in an attack on us, and expressing humor over it.
4) Restrained and respectful commentary on regions that have been affected by the New Pacific Order--all of them, even UCRs, not just the select GCRs that the NPO cozies up to.

What is not acceptable behavior when dealing with the Regional Message Board attacks:

1) Trolling and making a mockery of any region.
2) Treating the governments of any region with disrespect.
3) Quoting the spam in a malicious manner which can get you warned by the Moderators.
4) Disregard for your fellow NationStates players who have questions. Instead, direct them to an APC official if they want to know more about the situation.

Finally, this conduct guide applies to all APC agents! Contrary to popular belief, leaders of organizations have a responsibility to behave maturely, and should not be exempt from expectations for respect and etiquette!

Inspired by the fine work of Xoriet.
